Integrating AI in SAM

The Problem

Instructional designers need faster, more agile project delivery but don’t know how to leverage AI to accelerate SAM’s iterative cycles without sacrificing quality.

Description

This guide demonstrates how AI transforms the three-phase SAM model (Preparation, Iterative Design, Iterative Development) from a weeks-long process into a days-long workflow. It shows how to create working prototypes in 1-2 hours using tools like Articulate AI.  The document provides side-by-side comparisons of SAM versus ADDIE with AI integration and recommends when to use each approach.
